Anderson Cooper claims that his Twitter account was hacked after a insulting message was sent to President Donald Trump early this morning. It was reacting to Donald Trump’s post about last night’s special Senate Election in Alabama.

The reason I originally endorsed Luther Strange (and his numbers went up mightily), is that I said Roy Moore will not be able to win the General Election. I was right! Roy worked hard but the deck was stacked against him!

The tweet, which has been deleted, read: “Oh really? You endorsed him you tool! Pathetic loser.” It then went viral after Cooper’s 9.8 million followers caught wind of the post, with 16,000 likes and 2,700 retweets. However, CNN and Cooper claimed that the account was hacked, with the news channel saying “someone gained access” to Cooper’s information.

This morning someone gained access to the handle @andersoncooper and replied to POTUS. We're working with Twitter to secure the account.
